“Featured Game Of The Week”
Roosevelt “Rough Riders” (3-1) vs Venice “Gondoliers” (0-4)
This is the game that Coach Javier Cid has long been waiting for as the “Man-in-Charge” of the Roosevelt “Rough Riders.“ Simply stated, you only get better when you play the best, and that’s what he had in mind when he asked his counterpart, well-respected Venice High’s Head Coach, Angelo Gasca, to place him on his 2014 schedule. Now, on 10/3, that day is here and the Riders will head West to confront the Gondoliers in this very important City Section non-league match-up. For Coach Gasca, this season has been strictly a work in progress, or a rebuilding one, but he assures his team, the student-body, loyal fans, and sports writers, that they will rally to be in the “Playoff” picture. From Coach Cid’s perspective, he once again has the Riders in an overall winning mode as they prepare for this huge “Road” test, and would love nothing greater than to return to Eastern League play next week with a victory over this longtime City and Westside perennial powerhouse, the Venice “Gondoliers.” Hang on to your hat, as the fireworks show will start at 7 pm. Try to get out to watch this great “Friday Night Lights” battle between East vs. West!
